Qt Serial Port

AlexB89

Hello,

I'm having issues getting the QtSerialPort installed. I attempt to follow the instructions posted here, however, every time I attempt to Build, it returns the error:

private/qringbuffer_p.h: No such file or directory

After an exhaustive search for any information I've come up with nothing.

Some more information:

OS: ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Qt 5.5.1 GCC 64bit kit

During installation I had opted to install the QtSerialPort add-on. I have a folder labeled "QtSerialPort" folder in the Home->Qt5.5.1->5.5->gcc_64->include->QtSerialPort directory, and another labeled "qtserialport" in the Home->Qt5.5.1->Src directory.

What's going wrong with this installation? Is it actually installed and I'm not properly referencing it? Any help is much appreciated. Thank you!

Hi and welcome to devnet,

Like noted on the wiki article your linked, the QtSerialPort module is already part of Qt since 5.1 so you don't need to install it by hand unless you need some bug fix that isn't already available in the current Qt version you installed.

Wow, I feel insanely stupid now. I had be including it as:

#include <QSerialPort>
#include <QSerialPortInfo>

rather than

#include <QtSerialPort/QSerialPort>
#include <QtSerialPort/QSerialPortInfo>

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.

Both should work. Are you by any chance missing QT += serialport in your .pro file ?

AlexB89

No, I had added that and it hadn't worked.

SGaist

Did you re-run qmake after adding it ?

AlexB89

No, I had not explicitly re-run qmake.

SGaist

Then do that. You have a menu entry to manually run qmake.
